...Larry King Sucks!!!! Oh, and Dr. Gupta is embarrassed that he's such a shoddy reporter, and got caught in the whole false balance trap that plagues journalism nowadays.

1. IS he embarrassed?
Or do you just think he should be?

4. It went beyond a gotcha
They covered up the footage of the chart showing Cuba. It was there. CNN plastered its bar all over it.

3. Michael Moore has his facts down pat, Gupta doesn't. Made him
look like a fool.

5. Did Michael come out on top for sure?
I hope so, cause SICKO is brilliant and it should change America!

Please let the TRUTH set us free in this country.

6. I think so; King asked Gupta who helped research his piece on Sicko,
and Gupta claimed it was unbiased.
Well MM knew who was involved; don't remember if a name was mentioned, but it was a r/w'er with ties to Blue Cross. That was a gotcha!
